Internet Status — May 11, 2026: Operating Normally with Minor Cloudflare Bot Management Issue
The global internet is operating normally today. No major outages, routing incidents, or DNS disruptions are being reported.
Major cloud and infrastructure providers — AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, GitHub, OpenAI, Discord, and Akamai — are all reporting all systems operational. No widespread BGP or routing instability has been detected.
The one notable ongoing item is on Cloudflare: a Bot Management issue first identified on April 1st continues in a contained state. The affected detection rules (50331648 and 50331649) have been disabled globally, and Cloudflare reported on May 9 that an additional 72 hours is needed for stabilization and review. Cloudflare Sites and Services and Bot Management remain flagged as degraded performance, but core CDN and security delivery are unaffected for end users.
No significant cable, ISP, or platform-level disruptions to flag. Overall: the internet is up.
